Reba McEntire is the Queen of Country Music. With over 41 million albums sold in the United States alone, she is the 7th best-selling female artist in history. Not country music history, all of it. With one of the most prolific recording careers in history, one that spans nearly 50 years of studio albums, landing on the five best songs out of her entire discography is a task not for the faint of heart.

So, sit back, but certainly don't...leave...until you've heard the definitive best five songs about leaving!

The people have spoken. After laughing with the siblings during the "Favorite Misheard Lyrics" episodes in seasons one and two, the masses have demanded a volume III. Because The Music List is here to please you, we are happy to oblige! Join the siblings as they share some misheard lyrics and laughs in this lighthearted and fun episode of The Music List.

A great movie soundtrack can often be better than the movie itself. However, a truly great soundtrack provides the emotional connection between the film and the viewer. Whether it be an incredible score or a series of rock songs that move the plot forward, an unforgettable soundtrack can be part of a movie's legacy. So much so, that watchers and listeners may talk about it decades after the movie leaves the theaters. But what is the best soundtrack of all time? Is it an incredible score? Is it a series of pop or rock tunes? A musical with a composer and lyrical genius using music to create timeless characters and scenes? It's a brutal question, which means the siblings of The Music List decided to argue and debate their way to a top five list. Which soundtrack came out on top? Listen to this episode of The Music List to find out!

It's time to party like it's 1776! The Fourth of July may have come and gone, but The Music List is keeping the Independence Day celebration going. We're bringing the best songs with red, white, or blue in the title to the table, so settle in with your hot dogs and take in the fireworks!

It is the Battle Royale fans of The Music List have been asking for. Arguments about Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth have peppered episodes for three seasons. The siblings heard the cries of listeners for an episode dedicated to Van Halen so it can be hashed out once and for all. Controversial. Heated. Entertaining. But we say, “Rock On. Rock on.” Van Halen has one of the strongest hard rock catalogs in the history of rock. With over 20 songs charting on the Billboard Hot 100 and countless more landing on the rock charts, narrowing the list of Van Halen songs to top the 5 is a near impossible task. But if one podcast is ready to set off this "Eruption" of a debate, it's The Music List podcast!

Happy Mother's Day! Even though the episode is dropping a few days after the holiday, the siblings wanted to honor their wonderful mother, Phyllis. This episode is dedicated to all the moms, mammas, mothers, and the like by listing the best songs about great moms or even mothers just doing their best to help their children. This episode is loaded with variety from hip hop to country to rock and roll.

To celebrate Heather's 50th birthday, a female rocker in her own right, The Music List takes on a topic near and dear to her heart- the best of the best female rock vocalists. And since Heather was born in 1974, we thought we would just decide to make it the best vocalists of her lifetime. Rock and roll has changed and evolved since the mid-70s, but what hasn't changed is that women with incredible chops have been front and center in the world of rock. But who are the best? The Music List Podcast hammers that out in this special birthday episode!

April showers bring May flowers, and the springtime reminds The Music List of all of the great songs that discuss the weather. Sunny skies or runny days fit the bill in this one. Just as spring weather is diverse with many changes, so too is this playlist. This weather-themed episode includes nearly every genre under the sun...or clouds.

March Madness has begun! Madness...crazy...it's a synonym thing, and The Music List podcast went with it!

No name in Disco resonates quite like the BeeGees. With over 120 million albums sold, only the Beatles and the Supremes have sold more units as a band. The Gibb brothers, Barry, Robin, and Maurice, won the world over with some of the tightest harmonies ever recorded, recognizable songwriting, and, of course, some of the best disco music to do the bus stop to. But what are the best BeeGees songs of all time? While the Gibb siblings earned their notoriety by being on the same page and working well together, the podcast siblings are going to war to answer this question. So, join us on the Music List podcast, and see if your favorite BeeGees song will be Stayin' Alive or if it will end in Tragedy.

What's better than a love song? A love song sung between lovers. Or, at least, those pretending to be. Love duets capture the chemistry, the passion, and the tension of love in a way a solo performance simply can't. Some are iconic love duets performed by the some of the titans of the music industry. Some are actual couples whose real love pours into the recording and out of the speakers. There are classics. There are new songs that are capturing our hearts. But what duets will steal our hearts enough to make the Music List? And which one will reign supreme as the best Love Song Duet of all time? Listen to the siblings duke it out on this episode of The Music List podcast!

Earlier Christmas episodes heavily relied on secular Christmas music, but in this episode, the focus is on the sacred. Many Christmas carols date back centuries, so many of the traditional carols sang in churches and by carolers have stood the test of time in centuries. The siblings tackle the daunting task of creating the best list of Christmas carols.

While Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Sinatra, and the crooners may lay claim to being the voices of Christmas past, rock, pop, and country singers have taken over the Christmas music scene since the 1970s. While their songs are much more diverse in musical sound than from decades before, they are also much more divisive with the listening populace. But, it makes for great podcast episode fodder! The question remains, however, what are the best modern Christmas songs? What are the best Christmas song recordings since 1970? The siblings tackle this question in the first of their 2023 Christmas episodes.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our wonderful listeners! We are thankful for you, and so this episode is a bit of a treat. To celebrate the time-honored traditions of the American Thanksgiving holiday, the siblings work together to create a delicious Thanksgiving spread using only band names. Appetizers, main courses, side dishes, and desserts. They all need to present. The catch? The band names MUST be a food that can reasonably be found on a traditional Thanksgiving table.

Fall is in full swing. The cooler temperatures are starting to sweep through the land, and The Music List is celebrating with an episode dedicated to fall! Wait, well, dedicated to falls...or falling...or fell. A different kind of fall, but it's all in honor of autumn! Which falling song will stay on top? Find out on this episode of The Music List podcast!

Spooky season is here! As much as Heather and Beth love Halloween and all things associated with the holiday, The Music List is guaranteed to bring you a fright-filled episode in October. Ghosts and hauntings are a fairly popular theme across all genres of music, and the siblings take on the daunting task of compiling and ranking the top five ghost story songs of all time in this episode. So, sit back, grab a handful of candy corn, and dim the lights for a great conversation about the best ghost story songs of all time.

In this episode, Tara and Natalie chat about their top 5 Halloween songs. Learn more about Record Store Society, your new favorite music podcast. 

Music has accompanied sporting events for literally thousands of years. From the Colosseum and gladiator combat of ancient Rome to the Super Bowls of today, stadium songs have always been an important segment of the sports culture. We play stadium songs at every level from the pro leagues down to junior high. Even pee-wee football teams that take their pregame seriously pump up the volume with a well-placed hype song in the pregame. But what songs are the greatest sports anthems of all time? Join the siblings, all of whom love music and love sports, to answer that very question!

The siblings went toe to toe over two episodes to determine the top five songs of Beatles in the early era as well as the top five songs from the late Beatles era. With 10 songs between them selected, which five will make the cut as the best Beatles songs from their entire catalog? Which Beatles classic will reign supreme as their very best? Will the siblings be petty like the previous two episodes, or will they put aside their differences and Let it Be? Find out in this bonus episode of The Music List podcast!

Few bands accomplished so much over such a short period of recording time that the Beatles. With just seven years of recording history, the "Fab Four" are widely considered the greatest rock and roll band to grace a stage or put music to vinyl. It is perhaps the late Beatles era, from 1966 to 1970, that solidified their place as rock's greatest and most influential band. With albums such as Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the White Album, Yellow Submarine, Abbey Road, and Let it Be, the Beatles flooded the late 60's with songs that ranged from tried and true rock and roll to psychedelic rock to experimentalism that set the standard for the next 30 years in the industry. But which songs on these incredible albums are the best five of the late Beatles era? The siblings duke it out in a snarky and fierce debate that gives as close to a definitive answer as you might find, only on The Music List!

There has been no shortage of great rock albums in the last 50 years. Five decades ago takes us back to 1973- quite possibly in the midst of the greatest diversity of sound in what would be considered "rock and roll." Queen, Skynyrd, and ZZ Top Released debut albums in 1973 while a couple of brothers whose last name was "Young" started a band of their own in Sydney, Australia. Rock got grittier, heavier. And, the albums rocked people's socks off. But what are the best rock albums since 1973? In order to get this list right, the siblings bring in an outside vote for the first time in TML history. Join the siblings and their producer, Shaun, as they tackle one of the toughest lists to date.

Back by popular demand, the second annual "Favorite Misheard Lyrics" episode is here! No genre is off limits. No musical icon is safe. A general musical mystery remains unsolved, and potty humor makes a roaring comeback in this fun and comedic episode. Join the siblings as they take a break from the arguing and laugh together to some hilarious misheard lyrics.

The 1980's was a decade of decadence, spandex, machismo males wearing lipstick while playing guitars, and, of course, hard-hitting jams about sex, drugs, and rock and roll. And yet, there was a softer side to the hair bands and hard rockers of the 80s. It manifested itself in the power ballad. The 80's didn't invent the power ballad, but they certainly ramped up the song production, the cheesy lyrics, and the music video budgets. Which power ballads are the very the best of the 1980's? Join the siblings as they bicker and haggle their way to a definitive top five list- The Music List.

Tumbleweed. Big iron. Mood-setting flute music. Ten paces and fast draws. In this explosive episode of The Music List podcast, the siblings duel it out over the best story ballads in the history of country music. Country music tells great stories that showcase conflict with winners and losers, and sometimes, no winners at all. The siblings mirror that with a conversation that gets so heated, the hosts have to take a timeout and cool down! See how it all shakes out on this narrative and controversial episode of The Music List podcast.

In the late 1960s, a new pop sound arrived on the scene. Geared toward kids and adolescents, this new subgenre earned the name "bubblegum pop." Many of the monster hits that fall under this "sweet" new sound were recorded by one-hit wonders. Others dominated not only the radio charts but television ratings as well. These same bands had merchandise that included toys, lunchboxes, and lots and lots of albums sold. In an episode dedicated to their mom, the siblings battle it out over the sweet things. Which bubblegum songs "pop" into the top 5? Which one is the cherry on top? Listen to this sweet episode of The Music List podcast to find out!

From the lakes of Minnesota to the hills of Tennessee...patriotic songs ring through the land during summertime. Rock legends, country icons, soul superstars, and more have honored America with amazing patriotic songs about the United States. In honor of America's Independence Day, the siblings fight as if it were the Battles of Lexington and Concord. But which American patriotic song reigns supreme? And does anyone really reign in a democratic, constitutional republic? Find out all of this and more on this patriotic episode of The Music List!

The first official day of summer has arrived, and no band harnesses the summer sun, the beach, and summer vibes quite like the Beach Boys. The Beach Boys revolutionized rock music and became one of the most influential groups of all time. The Beach Boys have more Billboard Top 40 hits than any other American band in rock history, so cutting the list to the top 5 is a near impossible task. Join in as the siblings scratch, claw, and surf their way to taking that task head on. Whether you agree or disagree, we guarantee you'll have Fun, Fun, Fun listening to this episode as we listen to and discuss some of the very best songs the Beach Boys have to offer.

Father. Dad. Daddy. Pops. Papa. Papi. There are billions of father's all over the world and a fair number of great songs celebrating them. In June, we celebrate Father's Day, and The Music List podcast comes in with an episode dedicated to all the great dads out there, including the cohosts' own. Join the siblings in one of the most emotional episodes in the podcast's history. Enjoy great music, great debate, and great stories.

The Beatles need no introduction. They are best selling musical act of all time and the most successful in the history of the Billboard charts. Like others who stand the test of time, the Beatles evolved with the musical styles of the day. Or perhaps, they stayed fresh and the musical times evolved to keep up. There was a marked change in the Beatles between Rubber Soul, their sixth studio album and Revolver, their seventh and the beginning of their psychedelic era. It is the "Early Beatles" era that the siblings tackle in this episode. Which songs in their first six studio albums are their best? A near impossible task, but the TML won't ask for Help! in this one.

Back in season 1 (episode 9) of The Music List, the siblings argued, persuaded, cut deals, and finally settled on the top 5 female R&B vocalists of the 20th century. In season 2 (episode 9), the TML siblings decided on a top five list of the best male R&B vocalists during the same period. In this special bonus episode, The Music List takes the list of those 10 absolute R&B legends, and assumes the unenviable task of removing five of them from the master list. To up the ante, the siblings then have to rank the top five. Listen in as last week's argument spills over into this bonus episode!

Rhythm and blues music originated in the African-American communities during the 1940's. Over the past 80 years, R&B has developed subgenres and even the subgenres have subgenres. Doo-wop, hip-hop, funk, soul, and even swamp rock can trace their roots to R&B music. And of course, that amazing baby-making music of slow jams and crystal-clear voices is the heart and soul of the R&B genre. As diverse a genre as R&B is, this episode did not disappoint. The only thing that is greater than the diverse sounds of the vocalists in this episode is the talent. The siblings argue over what constitutes an R&B artist, but the one thing that is not in dispute- the song selections are on point. Join the siblings as they take on the monumental task of ranking the best male R&B vocalists of the 20th century.

Pete Rose finished his baseball career as the all-time hit leader with 4,256 hits. That's 4,255 more than the artists discussed in this episode. Like Pete Rose, however, these artists will likely not be getting a Hall of Fame invitation. In this installment of The Music List, we celebrate the best one-hit wonders of the 1980's.
